Mark,
What don't you like about the Lucaya enclosures?
I have one of the 1208 versions to evaluate. I think I like it a lot.
The built-in antenna seems like it should be good enough for LOS
customers out to a mile, and with our trees few people would have LOS
beyond that anyway.
If I want to use a stronger antenna, I can plug in a VAGI (that's
what I'm leaning toward currently). And I can set that H or V
polarity as desired.
I should be able to just stock this single radio and be fully covered
for clients in 2.4GHz. Near as I can tell, it is slightly cheaper
than the Rootenna parts, arrives ready to install, and is FCC certified.
I do like the small Rootenna, but realistically I spent several hours
over the weekend putting together just 4 systems (and then testing
them). I would be happy to never need to connect another ufl
pigtail! Just testing the Roos in my basement, none of them worked
as well as the 8dBi Lucaya unit.

That's really too bad because this unit WOULD BE very valuable to
me if it could run StarOS v3. It's small, powerful, dual-pol, has
LEDs to speed up the install/site survey (I know that LEDs aren't
everything in a link), reasonably priced, FCC-Certified, etc.
HOWEVER, StarOS v3 is my direction, so boards, standoffs, pigtails,
and RooTennas it is. I don't like the Lucaya enclosures, or the
enclosures with integrated antennas.
